The Canadian interior designer René Desjardins has completed the interior design of this penthouse apartment in down town Montreal, Quebec.
The apartment consists of two zones: on one side is the living room, dining room, kitchen and the living area/home theatre whereas on the other there is the private quarters of the client and his son. A warm environment was created through the use of whites and shades of grey and brown.
In the main room, “the floors are finished in planks of ash baked to a warm caffe latte. A great interior wall of white oak stained a charcoal grey forms a perfect backdrop, maximizing the sense of space and turning the focus to the spectacular view and the contemporary furniture.” All of the baseboard heating units have been covered in ash to match the floors.
The dining room and kitchen are located at the far North end of the main room. The dining room table has a solid French walnut surface with a patinated steel base and is able to seat ten people. “The kitchen is very simple yet has a very strong presence. The cabinets feature countertops of charcoal granite quartz and are faced in glass, creating bright surfaces that reflect the cityscape. A door leads to the outdoor terrace, which runs the length of the dining room”.
